Requirements

I recommend you read the following tutorials on our website (if you haven't already):

  1. https://codeshack.io/crud-application-php-pdo-mysql/

You will need the following:

  1. XAMPP or a web-server with PHP, MySQL & phpMyAdmin installed, if you've purchased web hosting you will only need to upload the files to your web directory.
  2. A code editor, you can use notepad to edit the PHP files but I don't recommend it, instead download one of the following: Notepad++, Visual Studio Code, or Atom.

Instructions

  1. Open the XAMPP control panel and start Apache and MySQL
  2. Upload/import the "phpcrud.sql" file in phpMyAdmin
    NOTE: If you get a MySQL permissions error you might need to create the database manually.
  3. Copy/cut one of the packages folder into your web directory (htdocs/www etc)
  4. Rename the folder to "phpcrud" and go to http://localhost/phpcrud/ in your web browser
  5. Edit "functions.php" and update the MySQL connection details in the "pdo_connect_mysql" function, no need to edit anything else.
  6. Enjoy coding and thank you for supporting us!

FAQs

  1. Why am I getting a MySQL error?
    Make sure you edit the PHP files and update the connection details, you might need to change the hostname if yours is different, and make sure you've uploaded the SQL file in phpMyAdmin.
  2. How do I download the zip file again if I've deleted it?
    You can request a new link here.
